Today’s post is one of my very favorite posts of the year.
All year I share with y’all what my favorite things are, and then at the end of the year, I always like to see what y’alls favorite things were! I always find it super interesting to dig deep and find out what you ladies really gravitated towards, and I’m almost always surprised by at least a couple of items.
And for the record, I guess it should come as no surprise that most of MY top items ended up being some of Y’ALLS top items too! I mean, when I absolutely LOVE something, I talk about it over and over and over again. It’s like a quirk that I have. If I realllllllllllllly love something then I want y’all to know about it and love it too. It’s like I make it a personal mission for you to at least try the item so you can form your own opinion!
So, I now present to you…..the 2020 STMT Reader Top 10….
1. MUST HAVE leggings / 2. WIT AND WISDOM JEANS: raw hem ankle jeans – clean jeans – itty bitty boot cut jeans/ 3. boyfriend shorts / 4. masks / 5. Jumbo Cleansing Balm/ 6. best throw ever / 7. cordless stick vacuum / 8. Edge Lux sneakers / 9. UNMENTIONABLES: Bliss perfection bra – undies – T-shirt bra / 10. joggers
********************
NUMBER 10: COZY FLEECE JOGGERS
I’m so surprised that these weren’t higher on the list this year…especially because #2020.
These joggers are super soft, made out of a cozy fleece, and you’re going to want to wear them 24/7. And the code SHEAFFER20 will get you 20% OFF right now!
If you’ve been following for awhile, you are aware that I’m borderline obsessed with joggers. I like thin ones, I like thick ones, I like full length ones, I like capri ones. I JUST LIKE JOGGERS.
This pair from Gibson has always been in my Top 3 pairs of joggers. I love that they are super light weight and although they are great for lounging at home, I also love throwing them on with sneakers to bop around town. This particular pair boasts cozy brushed fleece fabric, a drawstring waist, and front pockets. In the past, I’ve had many readers that say they slip these on every single night after they get home from work. Now that many people are working from home, I’m imagining that these babies are getting worn all day a great majority of the week.
I’m wearing a petite small here (I’m 5’4″), but the regular smalls provide a more relaxed look. BIG TIP: I thought the drawstring was too long, so I cut it on both sides and then tied a knot on both ends.
I’m going to show you the joggers styled several different ways…
With this top, I think you can see how you could totally be wallowing on the couch as comfy as can be, but you could hop on a zoom call and the top would have you looking all sorts of put together. I’m wearing a medium in the top.
wrap top (click HERE for similar top with better stock)/ earrings / dainty necklace / joggers
This next top surprised me. I mean, it’s just a long sleeve v neck, but it is definitely one of my favorite tops and I find myself reaching for it ALL THE TIME. I don’t know why, but it’s so flipping cute! This little stripe caught my eye, and it has the perfect v, a slightly dropped shoulder, and thumb holes! AND OHHHHHHHH MYYYYYYYYYYY WORD IT’S SO SOFT.
I also just like the way it fits. It lays nicely, and it isn’t too fitted OR too slouchy.
For size reference, I’m wearing a small and it’s still super roomy.
cozy fleece v neck / earrings / dainty necklace / joggers
Love the matchy matchy sets too.
And the classic black with the grey joggers.
Click HERE for all of the cozy fleece v neck color options.
And the color block is a lot of fun!
colorblock pullover / joggers / slip on sneakers (06702 black)
Plain and simple, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND these joggers. And remember to use the code SHEAFFER20 for 20% OFF!
********************
NUMBER 9: UNMENTIONABLES
#9 was a tie….. These items were #10 on last year’s list. And in previous years, both of these items have made the Top 5 list. In fact, 1 year one of them was #1. They are still going strong MANY years after I first introduced them to you. Can you guess what they are?
I’ll give you a hint, I wear at least 1 of them EVERY. SINGLE. DAY.
Click HERE for a 3 pack of the undies. You can buy them individually HERE, although you really should go ahead and buy 3.
Click HERE for the bra on the left. Click HERE for the bra on the right , and I hear that this one is awesome for smaller chested girls (not pictured).
START OFF THE NEW YEAR WITH SOME NEW UNDIES! #youdeserveit
You can click HERE to see a post where I talk more about both the bra and the undies. (Scroll to almost of the bottom of the post to see all of my thoughts. You’ll see a picture of the bra and the undies together, and I share my thoughts about both of them right above the picture.)
And although this bra didn’t make the top 10 list, it should have. I mean, it’s a strapless bra that I wear when I don’t even have to wear a strapless. Yes, it’s that good. And one of the color options is ON SALE!
Also, although they didn’t make the Top 10 list, these undies are also favorites of mine (and y’alls as well). I found them a couple of years ago, and I like them even more than the above when a panty line is a real concern. We’re talking NO VISIBLE PANTY LINES. AT ALL. And they totally stay put. Click HERE to get to two different posts I wrote awhile back about my favorite items from Soma! It’s a brand that I don’t talk about super often, BUT I LOVE.
********************
NUMBER 8: EDGE LUX SNEAKERS
It was no surprise to me that the Edge Lux sneakers made the Top 10 list. They are SO LIGHT, SO COMFY, and SO DANG CUTE!
True to size for me.
This color is almost sold out, but there are several other colors available.
joggers / bag strap / neutral sneakers (clear brown/nude/white)
Conner has them in this pattern and loves them. So do I.
sweatshirt / leggings (purple claret) / sneakers
********************
NUMBER 7: CORDLESS STICK VACUUM
THIS ONE FLOORED ME!
Although it shouldn’t have, because the feedback I’ve received regarding this vacuum has been OVERWHELMING.
Y’all love it just as much as I do.
Our favorite new tool of 2020 is for sure this cordless stick vacuum.
Click HERE for the original post and the full review. I also have a highlight reel on ig stories titled “Stick Vac” where you can see Carter breaking down everything he loves about the vacuum!
Look how happy this vacuum makes me.
IT’S SO GOOD. It definitely deserves a spot in the Top 10!
********************
NUMBER 6: THE BEST THROW EVER
It’s #6 this year, but it was #1 in the past!
And it’s not even something that you wear.
WHAT? HOW CAN THIS BE?
DRUM ROLL PLEASE.
It’s the famous throw blanket!!!
I bought ONE OF THESE for my family in July during the anniversary sale several years ago, and we are now all obsessed. They make perfect gifts and come in many colors. And they are on sale right now! Y’all buy multiples every year for gifts, which is why I think it still has a place in the Top 10 (and probably always will).
And it’s ON SALE right now!
********************
NUMBER 5: RADIANT CLEANSING BALM
Out of all of the products in the Colleen Rothschild line (and I use and love MANY of them), the radiant cleansing balm is my favorite product by far. It totally changes the taking off your make up game, and I’m telling you, you won’t even dread washing your face at night. I KNOW. That’s a big claim, but I stand behind it.
AND LOTS OF YOU TRIED IT AND NOW AGREE WITH ME!
And right now it’s 20% OFF with the code BYE2020.
This balm truly has a cult following. For those of you that haven’t tried it yet, it’s different than any other cleanser I’ve ever used. First of all, I apply it to a dry face. I scoop out a small amount of the balm with dry hands and slather it on to my dry face. And as I rub it on my face, the heat from my hands changes the balm into more of an oily texture and it just feels incredibly luxurious. It melts my makeup away, leaves my skin feeling amazing and hydrated, and the light citrus smell is PERFECT.
Not only do I use it to cleanse my face morning and night, I also use it as a type of leave on mask when I’m battling dry skin. If my skin is dry, normal moisturizer tends to just sit on the surface, and my skin won’t absorb it enough to be properly moisturized. But when used as a mask, the cleansing balm hydrates my skin like nothing else can, and I cannot recommend it enough.
With the code it’s only $76 right now, and it’s a little over TWICE as much product as the regular size balm (which is $65)! Depending on how much product you use, people report it lasting between 6-12 months. I would say that it lasts a solid 9 months for me….and that’s with me using it to wash my face AND use it as a moisturizer when I need it! When you price it out the cost per month, it’s a FANTASTIC deal.
And just FYI, if you want to try other products besides the cleansing balm, you can shop the entire site for 20% OFF with the code BYE2020. In addition to 20% OFF most of the site, there’s up to 50% OFF select products. I just replaced my dual enzyme polish (ONLY $40 right now), and the age renewal super serum is $68 right now (regularly $90)!
********************
NUMBER 4: FACE MASKS
If you would have told me in 2019 that face masks would be on my Top 10 list in 2020, I would have thought you were crazy.
BUT HERE WE ARE.
After trying countless masks this year, these are still my favorite. This mask comes in several colors/patterns, but my favorites are the camo, the engineered stripe, and the leopard. If I had to choose just 1, I would choose the engineered stripe because it seems to go with any outfit.
These masks have nose-to-chin coverage and are machine washable for reusable convenience. I really need my masks to have a metal nose piece that helps to keep the mask in place, and these have the metal nose piece! (I’m told the nose piece also helps glasses not to fog up, for those of you that wear glasses.) This one stays put and I never have to readjust it. And they’re cute!
When wearing them, some don’t like that they protrude out a bit under the nose, but I actually REALLLLLLLY appreciate the little bit of extra breathing room!
Madewell tee / camo mask / denim shorts / strappy sandals (size up a 1/2)
********************
NUMBER 3: BOYFRIEND DENIM SHORTS
These boyfriend shorts have been in my personal Top 5 for the last several years, but this is the first year that I recall them making the Top 10! I’m guessing this was their year because they appeared in almost every single one of my outfits this summer. Seriously. I wore them constantly.
I actually have them in both a 27 and a 28. I like both fits.
Here are just a few outfits with the shorts….
OUTFIT #1
hot pink sweater / sunglasses / teardrop statement earrings / boyfriend shorts / sandals /
OUTFIT #2
OUTFIT #3
Happy Camper tee /turquoise earrings / colorful stretch bracelets/ my favorite denim shorts / sandals
OUTFIT #4
And fyi, 10 minutes before I took this picture I was pasty white. But my aggressive paleness was nothing my favorite tanner couldn’t fix! I think I first used this product last summer, and now I’m very loyal. I love the mitt it comes with and I love that you can see the color as it goes on. It’s pretty much a fail proof application, and the color is very natural.
Bring on the Sunshine tee /turquoise earrings / colorful stretch bracelets / my favorite denim shorts/ Birk dupes
OUTFIT #5
camo pullover hoodie / earrings / favorite denim shorts / navy shoreline converse
********************
NUMBER 2: WIT AND WISDOM JEANS
Y’all know I love Wit and Wisdom jeans.
In fact, this year, I think they might have been the only jean brand I ever wore. I’m telling you, I no longer wear jeans that don’t have stretch in them. #lifeistooshort
They are SO stretchy, SO comfy, and SO flattering…..and they come in so many different washes and styles that there’s truly something for everybody. In fact, if we were ranking brands for the year, Wit and Wisdom would be the #1 Reader Favorite brand on the blog. But because I showed so many different pairs of jeans, there wasn’t 1 particular pair that made the Top 10. But there were several pair that catapulted Wit and Wisdom Jeans to the #2 favorite.
Probably my very favorite jeans this year are these raw hem ankle jeans.
rust sweater / sunglasses / statement earrings/ bracelet set / logo bracelet / raw hem ankle jeans / leopard sneakers
They really are just as cute as can be. I love the frayed ankle hem.
raw hem ankle jeans / leopard sneakers
Here they are again.
striped space die sweater/ blingy hoop earrings / dainty necklace / sunglasses / logo bracelet / raw hem ankle jeans / neutral wedge sneakers
These jeans were definitely the most worn jeans in my closet this year. They are a great wash, and they are nice and clean without any distressing. The ankle length and raw hem pair perfectly with sneakers, flats, and booties.
For size reference, I’m wearing my regular size 4. And yes, they have the famous Ab-Solution technology that we’ve all grown to know and love.
striped space die sweater/ blingy hoop earrings / dainty necklace / sunglasses / logo bracelet / raw hem ankle jeans / neutral wedge sneakers
And not surprising, the itty bitty boot cut jeans have made the Top 10 list. Again.
If you’ve been following me for any amount of time, you’ve heard me sing the praises of these jeans at least 350 times. Well get ready, because today is 356.
I truly feel like everybody needs to try these jeans. You might not think you are a boot cut jeans girl, but I’d like to throw it out there that you just might be wrong. These jeans will lengthen your legs and the Ab-solution technology will suck you in and smooth you out (without being too restrictive). They will make you look 5 pounds thinner. NO JOKE. AND 2 inches taller. NO JOKE. They are a narrow boot cut, so you won’t be overwhelmed by the flare, and I think you will welcome having a pair of jeans in your closet that isn’t the standard skinny jean!
I’m wearing my regular size 4s, but many sizes down, especially if between sizes. They waistband is very stretchy and very forgiving. But don’t let the words “stretchy” and “forgiving” scare you, because these babies keep their shape all day long! Also, at 5’4″, the petites are too short on me. I like wearing a 3 inch wedge or heel with these jeans, and the petites would have only allowed me to wear flats, so the regular sizing works best for me.
GET THE JEANS. TRY THE JEANS. PLEASE. #ishallnotrestuntileverybodydoes
Also, the cashmere sweater just went 50% OFF! Cashmere for Under $50 is a great deal!
camel cashmere sweater / sunglasses / earrings / leopard cross body bag / itty bitty boot cut jeans (plus size option)/ wedge booties
Here they are again.
sweater / itty bitty boot cut jeans / teardrop statement earrings / neutral wedge booties
These dark wash ankle jeans were another super popular pair this year. They are a great option with no distressing and a finished hem. I’m wearing my regular size 4.
animal print puff sleeve tee /statement earrings / necklace / dark wash ankle jeans/ neutral block heel booties “tortilla suede”
********************
NUMBER 1: THE MUST HAVE JOGGERS
Y’all. THIS ONE SHOCKED ME.
I WAS SHOOK.
Not because the joggers aren’t awesome and they don’t deserve to be number one. BECAUSE THEY TOTALLY DO.
I’m only surprised because I didn’t even find these leggings until mid November, and they not only made the Top 10…THEY ARE NUMBER 1.
high low sweatshirt / sports bra / sunglasses / earrings/ MUST HAVE leggings / funky sneakers
Y’all know I can’t shut up about these babies.
I can’t help it. I ADORE mine, and I think that everybody needs to give them a try.
They are high waisted like the Zella high waisted live in leggings we all know and love. But get this, the waistband is a soft ribbed material. They don’t have as much compression as the original leggings, which actually makes them even more comfortable! And I’ll take comfort over compression every day of the week.
In addition to the cute pockets and the awesome ribbed waistband, there are also cute little bands at the bottom. So they have jogger styling, but they fit like leggings. They’re awesome.
Also. THEY ARE SO SOFT. Like reallllllllllly REALLY soft.
And I’m telling you, the fit is adorable.
These are the “black”, but I think they are more of a really dark charcoal grey. For size reference, I’m wearing a small. I’ve heard that some people are sizing down in these, but I like the fit of my regular size.
high low sweatshirt / MUST HAVE leggings / funky sneakers
The leggings look great with both standard sneakers and fashion sneakers.
MUST HAVE leggings / funky sneakers
I could wear an outfit like this every single day of my life and be happy.
high low sweatshirt / sports bra / sunglasses / earrings/ MUST HAVE leggings / funky sneakers
And a couple of more outfits with the must have leggings…
This drawstring hoodie is very soft, it’s got some stretch in it, and I like the design as well. The contrasting drawstrings, the exaggerated hemline, and the side slits all make it super cute. I fell in love with this vibrant blue, but it comes in a charcoal grey as well. For size reference, I’m wearing a medium. The medium was actually a little big (see how I have the sleeves cuffed), so I wished I would have ordered a small.
drawstring hoodie / sports bra / soft pocket lounge leggings / similar KS huggie earrings / Edge Luxe sneaker
The soft pocket lounge leggings that are the star of the show.
I want to wear them every single day.
drawstring hoodie / sports bra / soft pocket lounge leggings / similar KS huggie earrings / Edge Luxe sneaker
Here’s one more outfit showcasing the leggings that you need to try for yourself.

Those jeans!! Love the recaps- keep them coming.
Sharon says
Great post! I have a question about the wit and wisdom jeans…you mentioned you are wearing your regular size..just want to confirm regular length not petite? I need another pair of jeans as I tend to reach for two pair over and over..closet purge needed stat! Also, like you the cleansing balm is one of my most favorite things ever and thanks to you I now use as a moisturizer in the winter until I wash off in the shower..really helps with my dry skin.
Thanks for all of your tips and happy new year to you and the family?
Sheaffer says
Hi, Sharon! Yes…my regular sizing is regular…NOT petite. xoxo, Sheaffer 🙂

Sarah says
Wit and wisdom jeans are comfy and stylish. Love them!
Alison says
I am now obsessed with Natori, thanks to you! I also have the throw and the cleansing balm. It looks like I need to add some more things to my cart to try out the rest!
Christine Avelar says
I wholeheartedly agree with the wit and wisdom jeans and cleansing balm. The joggers are next on my wish list. Surprised none of your cute accessories made the top ten.
Kellie says
Can’t beat comfy clothes and a good cleanser!
Jen says
My favorite was the longer jean shorts you found over the summer…they were the perfect compromise between ones I feel are too short for this 42-year-old and too-long bermudas!
Rebecca Hengehold says
Thank you for being such a great resource. Natori is now a favorite of mine. I also ordered some of the CR cleansing balm. Excited to try other recommendations too.
Melissa says
I love all the Wit and Wisdom jeans! I have several pairs thanks to you!
Happy New Year!
Leah Crouse says
Hi Sheaffer! Happy New Year!!
I have the blanket, and it is everything you said it would be and more. As you warned me, my daughter steals it all the time. I’ll need more just for the house.?
An item from last favorites would be the barefoot dreams circle cardigan. I love it, and have convinced several friends that they need it too.?
Jennifer says
I love love LOVE Wit and Wisdom jeans. I’ve told everyone about them! I love your blog and especially the Amazon hauls!!!!
Courtney Loudon says
The joggers are the go to FOR SURE. I am a teacher and can wear them to work. and not even have to change into my ‘comfy’ clothes after work. HA! NO surprise those were the #1 pick in 2020!
Allison Dogaer says
I am in my head to toe Sheaffer inspired outfit today including my favorite Itty Bitty Boot cut jeans, camel sweater, leopard belt and leopard bracelet. I feel darling in this outfit! Thanks for the inspo on so many of my looks!!
Suzette Hodgson says
I love Wit and Wisdom jeans and I’m dying to try the cleansing balm.

Mary Conner says
I love the Wit and Wisdom jeans and the cleansing balm. Both are awesome! Happy New Year.
Lisa Curtis says
I do love the cleansing balm!
KD says
I just started following your blog this year, and it’s been a huge help as I’m back to my pre-baby size and needed to update a few things.
I’d love to try those Zella leggings! I bought a regular pair of Zella leggings, thanks to your suggestion, and wear them all the time.
Bailey Bryant says
Currently Prego with babe #3 but those joggers are #1 for my push present to myself. You’re recommendations are always so helpful Shay-fer ?.
Maura says
Love all of these items but the adidas sneaks are my fav!
Angela Wolsey says
I have the throw, cleansing balm, wit and wisdom jeans, boyfriend shorts and pure luxe t-shirt bra. All terrific recommendations! I love that you are one of a few influencers that I can always trust when you say something is good. Thanks for all your hard work this year!
Heather says
So many great items! I would love to try the raw hem ankle jeans and the Zella leggings! I hope you have a Happy New Year!!!
Stephanie Boldt says
The jeans….are the best, how did i wear ANYTHING else? Love edge lux sneakers, they never disappoint, no matter the color/design. I want to try the zella leggings next! Thanks for all of your posts, and most importantly your honest opinions about every product you discuss!
JK says
What color are the shoes that your sister is wearing? They look blueish on her – are those the same ones on the Nordy site?
Sheaffer says
They are black and cheetah print! xoxo
MelanieL says
I always enjoy this list, thank you for all you do! I gave the blanket as gifts again this year and people LOVE them!! I’m interested in the boyfriend shorts and the leggings, I’m in need of both. 🙂
Amy Cooley says
Thanks for sharing the top 10. I’ll have to give some of these a try. The joggers definitely got my attention. I love to be comfy and cozy! Happy New Year!
Natalie Heidelberg says
The unmentionables you recommend are my favorites! I also just bought my first pair of Wit and Wisdom jeans and live them. I’m not a leggings girl, but you’ve *almost* convinced me to try the must haves.
Kelly Taylor says
Because of your blog, I have #1 and #3 in multiple colors! I love them. Can’t wait to see what’s on the list next year.
Suzanne says
I have 3 pair of Wit and Wisdom jeans including the itty bitty boot cut jeans.
I have the awesome blanket-which my family loves.
I have the CR balm.
I tried ordering the boyfriend shorts but they were never in stock.
I have ordered SO many other products you have posted throughout the last few years. I love everything you post!
Thanks!
Suzanne says
I also have the fabulous Amazon sneakers that are my absolute favorite pair of shoes! I have them in apricot and black. But I’m considering getting them in grey. I definitely think they are a top pick!
Sheaffer says
Amazon Reader Favorites is another post! I’m sure those will make that list! xoxo
Karen says
Dang it, I thought I was done shopping for the year. LOVE THIS LIST! Thank you! ?
Alicia Fedell says
I have 4 different colors of the blanket! I love it! My kids love it! We had to get more so everyone could have one.
Julie says
Have the jeans and love them! Thank you!
Camille says
I love the cleansing balm! I might need more CR products as they match my initials 🙂 I also think joggers are so cute, but not sure I have the body type for them.
Beth Kaiser says
I’m almost embarrassed by how many of these I have. ?
I definitely listen when you tell me to do something!
I just started using the Colleen Rothschild products. Verdict is still out. The smell makes me think of Noxema from when I was a teen.
Thanks for all you do! Happy New Year!
Alli Coords says
Hi Sheaffer! I have never left a comment before, but I am a faithful reader and I LOVE your blog. I have the leggings, the vacuum and the cleansing balm. The leggings are SO flattering, they are my new favorite pair. I just got the vacuum for Christmas and it seems great for wood floors. The cleansing balm is amazing on my combination skin. My other favorite from you this year is a bralette ( I think that’s what it’s called?) that you recommended from Soma. It is so soft and comfortable. Thank you for all your hard work you put into this blog!
chris Wasso says
I started using the Colleen Rothchild cleansing balm, and it is a real game changer!
Thank you for all the other suggestions too.
Love your blog.
Amy Varnon says
I always enjoy reading your favorites! The famous throw blanket has become my got o everything gift! I bought the joggers for my daughter this Christmas and she loves them. Thanks!
Shaye Dodson says
Thanks to you & the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale, I discovered Wit & Wisdom jeans! I cannot believe it took me this long to find them! Thanks for the recommendation.
Jill Hargis says
I have almost all your items on your list! I swear by your recommendations! We love you!
Kirstin Morningstar says
I have several pairs of Wit and Wisdom jeans now based on your recs, and I absolutely love the Cleansing Balm!!!
Ann says
I love your recommendations on joggers and leggings…..so much do that I’m going to try the itty bitty boot cut jeans.
Danielle A. says
Thank you for everything!! Your gift guides are perfection and I know without a doubt I can trust your recommendations. Now…I must order a new vacuum.
Kelly Henderson says
It took 2 weeks to get the must have leggings but I wear them at least twice a week! In fact, I have them on as I leave this comment. They.are.awesome! The softest and coziest material ever. I appreciate the work you do with the amazon finds! The ‘zon is overwhelming and there is so much “junk” there so it’s nice when you research what works. Thanks!
Michelle says
I have several of your top 10 items as well! I LOVE the Natori undergarments and being reminded of those comfy shorts has me pining for warmer days, where I live. Though I have two pair of the Wit and Wisdom jeans, I am waiting for a sale to try the itty bitty boot cut style. Thanks for sharing your honest opinions!
Ruth says
Thanks for your year-end wrap up! I laughed at the face mask making it in the Top 10. Everything on the list says comfort and cozy, even the vacuum in an abstract way, and that just sums up 2020.
Julie says
I have been purchasing your recommendations for at least 5 years now and have loved your picks! I think I need the leggings next! Thanks for the great finds!
Jenna says
The throw blanket! Perfect for all those days/nights spent at home in 2020.
Tamara Miller says
My leggings just arrived yesterday! Can’t wait to wear them!
Kelly says
Just found your blog yesterday. Love it! Thanks for the great fashion ideas.
Rachel Kimball says
I have a couple pairs of Wit & Wisdom jeans and the Zella must have joggers. Thanks for all your recs this year! Happy new year!
Jill says
So many good things – I can see why these are all favorites! That throw blanket is a great price point and looks so cozy! I’ve been wanting to try Colleen Rothchild products and need to check out the cleansing balm! Happy New Year!
Jill – Doused in Pink
Brittany Swain says
I can’t wait to try those joggers! The masks also look comfortable enough to teach in all day!
Sara says
I think I’m going to do some online shopping today. I need to finally purchase that cleansing balm…. and the vacuum…and the leggings! Thanks Sheaffer!
Jenny says
I LOVE all three pairs of Wit and Wisdom jeans I have, love the throw, and am dying to try the joggers. I’m also terribly tempted to get the Adidas shoes. Thanks for your recommendations!!
Dani Womack says
Thank you for all the time you put in to help others!
Sarah Johnson says
I like the jumbo cleansing balm but would also love to try the joggers!
Robin says
Ok, just put one of the Natori bras and the W&W bootcut in my Nordstrom cart!
Posting quick and then going to checkout ?
Thanks for doing all the legwork for us and for the great post!
Katie Nelson says
Wit and Wisdom jeans are the best! I am 5’2” so I love that they offer petite. I also LOVE that they are a little forgiving as I’ve gained my Covid-19 this year. Ha! Not really, but close! ?♀️
Looking forward to your “what I eat” posts for some new healthy ideas!
Melissa says
Fully agree with the two pairs of joggers and wit and wisdom jeans!! They are all I wear working from home now.
Kristin says
Love everything you recommend!
Jennifer says
Hi my name is Jennifer and I am a member of Sheaffer anonymous. You tell me to buy it, I buy it and love it.
Sheaffer says
This made me lol. Hi, Jennifer! WELCOME! xoxo
Kellie M says
Fun to see everything summed up here – so many of my favorites as well!
Stacy says
Love a top 10 list!! Cannot wait to try the #1 joggers and cleaning balm. Also never thought I’d be excited about a mask ??
Happy new year!
Kristy says
I’ve been wanting to try the Wit and Wisdom jeans, they look so comfortable!
Mary Beth says
I have several of the unmentionables, the cozy throw blanket, the jeans, and the sneakers! Does this mean I have a problem ?
Rachel G. says
I have and love many of these but still need to try a few. I agree absolutely Wit and Wisdom. Who has time for non-stretchy jeans? Not me! Thank you for being a bright spot in an often dark year, Sheaffer!
Liz Etter says
You got me started on all the Colleen Rothchild products! Favorites for me are the cleansing balm and eye serum. THANK YOU! Not sure I will pick up another brand again!
Michelle Brasil says
This year I tried the must have leggings, the radiant cleansing balm, the Skye joggers, and added a few more blankets to my collection!
Kari says
So many great items this year that didn’t make the list. I recently purchased the red cable cardigan from Amazon and I love it. My next purchase is the radiant balm. You sold me on it. Can’t wait to try it and see the results.
Kim Mcguire says
Great list of favorites!! I appreciate you doing all the “.work” for me, it makes shopping a breeze! I can’t decide if I should buy the sneakers or the pocket leggings next?? Decisions, decisions…..
Kerry says
The #1 joggers are the ABSOLUTE BEST! I love them so much! Once I saw you post about them several times, I ordered and do t regret it for a second!
I love your posts and appreciate all you do for us! Happy New Year!
Trish says
Gosh I have several of these things but not the joggers. I’m starting to think I made a mistake not ordering them yet ?. Gonna have to fix that! Happy New Year Shaeffer and family!!!!
Samantha Thompson says
I received the throw for Christmas and love it!
Heather says
Thank you for convincing me to try Colleen Rothschild products! I have sensitive skin and have had trouble using other product lines in the past, but the CR line makes my skin so happy! Cleansing balm and Enzyme Scrub are my faves. ?
Tina says
I only have two of your must haves…the boyfriend shorts and the zella live in leggings (in blue), but out of those I wouldn’t be able to pick just one favorite. I live in the shorts in the summer and the those leggings have been such an amazing winter find. I’ve been wanting to try the cleansing balm but haven’t pulled the trigger on that one yet.
Shannon Trujillo says
Happy New Year! I look forward to your post EVERY day! I have soooo many items that you have recommended, but my family is really enjoying the throw blanket right now!
THICIA RIDGWAY says
HaPpY hUmP dAY!! Your contagious upbeat personality makes me smile and your clothing suggestions keep me looking cute (& broke)!!! BEST WISHES for a WONDERFUL 2021 for YOU & your precious family!
Stacey Bastress says
Thanks for always having such great recommendations! When I give gifts to my friends they always say “did Sheaffer tell you too?” Lol I have given the blanket to almost everyone I know and have multiple at my home, I have the the wit and wisdom jeans and I love the Colleen Rothschild cleansing balm! I never miss a night of using it.
Thanks again for doing all the hard work of finding things I love!
Brandie says
I now have 2 pairs of the leggings and have gifted one to my mom, which she loved. They are the best!
Cathy Thomas says
Oh what a list!!! I have taken your advice so many times by ordering things after you have recommended them! Thanks for all the great, things that you feature. They are practical, affordable and relatable for the every day woman! Thanks friend!!
Nicole Karpinski says
I have the wit and wisdom jeans, cleansing balm, and natori bras! I also love the soma undies and am wrapped up in a baby blardigan! I need the joggers and sneakers. You were the first blogger I subscribed to way back in the day and have loved following you through the years!
Elizabeth says
Your end of year list! I have so many of them! I have at least 5 pairs of the Wit & Wisdom jeans, 3 of the throws, the stick vacuum, the strapless bra, the masks, and just ordered the #1 joggers. I wish I had the legs for the shorts… Happy New Year Sheaffer!!!
Susie Yates says
So many of these I have loved this year! The Wit n’ Wisdom pants…I think I own 4 pairs, the panties, the blanket-I bought a couple for my household and more as gifts and just ordered another one in a color that had been sold out. Thanks for making great purchases just SO EASY!!
Karna says
Would love to try the leggings!
Emily H says
It didn’t make the list this year, but it finally made my list – the Revlon One Step Hair Dryer! Loved it for when I actually did my hair this year.
Sheaffer says
I have another couple of favorites posts….a BEST OF BEAUTY and my Amazon Reader Favorites too! I’m sure it will be on one of those posts! xoxo
Emily Dutton says
Great list! Loving leggings with pockets.
Carol says
I FINALLY tried the Itty Bitty Boot Cut Jeans and got mine in the mail this week. Oh my! I love them! You were so right!
Adrienne says
I love the Wit and Wisdom jeans so much. I have been reluctant to buy the Gibson joggers because on other sites the reviews say they are too thin, almost see through.
Sheaffer says
They are thin, but the colors I have aren’t see thru! I’ve got the light grey, black, and olive! Hope this helps! xoxo
Tiff says
I did what you told me to and bought those Wit and Wisdom boot cut jeans…and I LOVE them! They are so flattering and comfortable! I actually loved W&W so much I ordered a pair of the black skinny jeans, too. Just as great! Thank you for your suggestions!
Alison Althouse says
I have so many of your top favorites, Sheaffer… and I always love following your blog for more ideas! Thanks for being such a fun spot to visit each day!
Marny Tackett says
Such a fun post! Love all of these items!
Deanna Harris says
Love the cleansing balm! Can’t wait to try the joggers!
Jesse I. says
Love it all! Want to try the cleansing balm next. 🙂
laura houck says
I purchased a pair of the zella leggings. I am tall and the length is awesome. They are comfortable and the fit is great. Great purchase! Thanks!!
Jeanne Fridolfs says
I have 7 of your top 10 2020! And multiples in many of them. I think my top 3 of your Top 10 would be 1. Radiant Cleansing Balm- It is the best, I also often use it as a mask, even sleep in it and wake up with the best skin! 2. Luxe sneakers- I have 2 pairs! 3. The must have shorts- also have these in two different washes, and live in them all summer. I recently got the Zella leggings and am finding I love those as well! I trust all of your recommendations!
Sonya Derczo says
I’ve been using the cleansing balm for about a month & love it. I need a pair of the Zella joggers but am waiting for a sale!
Heather Anderson says
Thanks for all of the great recommendations over the years! I’ve truly found some of my favorite things! Right now, I’m loving the must have joggers and the hi low sweatshirt!
Annaliza R says
I have the Gibson joggers. I also have the Kendra Scott Elle earrings.
Susan Allgoever says
Wit and Wisdom jeans are the best! Thanks for introducing me to them, I now have 3 pairs!!!
Neera says
I have the Wit and Wisdom jeans, fleece blankets, mask, and edge Lux sneakers. Love them all! I have many masks and these are my favorite for sure!! And I have those Zella joggers in my cart!
Cindy says
I have the throw blanket and we love it! Can’t believe I waited so long to get one. Thanks for all you do.
Carol says
Great post – you are a very dedicated blogger!
Monica Wilson says
I am obsessed with the Cleansing Balm!! Thank you as always for the recommendations! Happy New Year!
Kimberly Clayton says
I have the itty bitty boot cut jeans and the cleansing balm. Now I am thinking I need the joggers—although I’m typically not a joggers wearer. Is 58 too old for joggers? Asking for a friend…….?
Annette says
Have gifted the lovely throw to some very happy recipients. Now it’s time to gift one to myself!!
Monica says
Love your blog as much as I love the boyfriend shorts. Because of you, I own 2 pair, my sister owns a pair and my BFF has a pair. I really want to try the cleansing balm but haven’t bit the bullet yet. Thanks for all your honest fashion advice and for only promoting the items you actually wear/use. I trust you when you say it’s good. Like really good. ?
Ramona Coron says
Although it’s not in your top ten for 2020, I really like the military jacket you featured a few times throughout the past year. I have the dark gray one, and it is easy to dress up or dress down. It’s also very practical throughout the different seasons in Minnesota. I wouldn’t mind purchasing another one!
Sheaffer says
That’s from Amazon! I’m sure it will probably make the Amazon Top 10! Xoxo
Denise says
Love love love my wit & wisdom jeans! I have 2 washes of the itty bitty bootcuts and receive a ton of compliments every time I wear them!
Keri says
I have and love the boyfriend shorts and raw hem Wit and Wisdom jeans (cropped girlfriend cut from last year I believe that you posted a lot). I bought the boyfriend shorts when you told us all in the spring they were on sale and restocked and we better get them! Those bf shorts saw me through the summer, they are so comfy and cute. I really want to try the new must have Zella leggings. Thanks for all you do Sheaffer, your blog was such a cheer up this year!!!
Keri says
Just adding that I got the light wash version of the bf shorts that were on the Nordstrom site for like a minute and highly recommend that wash if they bring it back this year.
Samantha says
I’m going to need to try these must have joggers for post baby! I’m due in 3 weeks and looking for something cozy for those newborn days!
Christa says
I have the Colleen Balm. Also use the eye serum. So good. I apparently collect vacuums, so the Moosoo and the joggers. I am going to order the tanning lotion as looks great! Off to vacuum!
Jessica says
I bought 4 throws for Christmas gifts and they were a big hit. Think I might need to go back and by myself one. Thank you for the recommendation :).
Jessica says
*buy 🙂
Lisa Remsberg says
Happy New Year! You continued to be a bright light during this rather not so bright year. Thank you for all the hard work. I definitely have a few of your top 10.
Keesha says
I’m going to have to try the zella leggings! I got the Amazon sweater you have 3 colors in and love it! It is one of my favorites from your posts.
Pamela says
2020 has been the year of the jogger! I have and love the Gibson joggers – thanks to you!
Debbie Sheaffer says
I’ve ordered so many of your products because “you told me to” and I’m thinking the unmentionables are next! ?
Julee P says
My faves have been the wit & wisdom jeans … PERFECT for after babies and we now have 2 of the must have throws cause we all want one ?
Dana Fulcher says
Wit and Wisdom Jeans!
I have all three pair and love the raw hem the best…I try on the Itty Bitty Boot Cut and admire the transformation, but haven’t gone anywhere to wear them with heels.
Mary Elizabeth says
I have the unmentionables but want to try the cleansing balm!
Rhonda LaGrone says
I need to get a pair of those must have joggers!
Helena says
Love your blog and this list!!
Stacey says
My favorite this year from the list is the masks. I have the leopard and stripe and they are my fave masks that I’ve tried.
Susan Roberson says
I always enjoy this post. Thanks! I have several of these items.
Sue C says
How was the Amazon sweater not on this list?? Love the wit and wisdom jeans and the cleansing balm! Thanks for introducing me to them both. Happy New Year!
Sheaffer says
Hi, Sue! It will be at the top of the Amazon post! That’s an entirely different post. I should have made that clear!!!! xoxo
Susan says
I really want to try the face balm !!
Casey says
Always love seeing the round up of favorite things – I’m not surprised the leggings made number 1. I received a pair for Christmas and now want them in every color!
Jen says
Thank you for another great year filled with so many amazing suggestions!
Jessica says
I think I will try a few of the things I don’t have. And see if the school decides if I need the joggers! ?
April Upjohn says
I don’t have anything on this list, but have bought many things you’ve recommended. I’m currently using the leopard print tote in the smaller size from Amazon as my large purse. It worked out great for all the holiday travel. Happy New Year!
Karen H says
I have and love so many of these items (thanks, Sheaffer!), but my two very most favorites are the Zella leggings and the Wit and Wisdom jeans. However, I really want to try the number 1 joggers! They seem amazing! Thank you, Sheaffer, for doing all the work for us!
Leeanna says
I love the cozy blanket and also gave one to my mom as a gift! I also bought two different colors of the edge luxe sneakers. They are so cute and comfy! Thanks for another great year of recommendations!
Julee says
I got the #1 jogger leggings during the Anniversary sale, but your love for them convinced me that one pair was not enough!
Kelly says
I have a few of the items on the list. I think I’ll grab another blanket while it’s on sale. And, I’d love to see the boyfriend shorts on sale!
Stephanie Jensen says
I have almost everything on this list, thanks to you! But I don’t have, and reeeeeally want, those Adidas that Conner has. Happy New Year!
Anne says
I’ve been a fan of your blog since the early Pinterest Told Me To days….you have such a great sense of humor and way of making everyone feel good. Thanks for putting in the work to find so much for all of us, not matter what sizes and shapes. I love the Wit and Wisdom jeans, Zella leggings, and the blanket you recommended.
May you and your family, and puppy doggies ??have a blessed and happy 2021! Hugs! ❤️
Sheaffer says
Oh my goodness, Anne! What kind words! Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a sweet comment and Happy New Year! xoxo
Nina Cox says
Love your blog. Sometimes I think of you as my “personal shopper” I want to try the Wit and Wisdom jeans. I have the throw and have given it as gifts. Thanks for keeping us on trend.
Joy says
Thanks for the great list! Zella and Wit and Wisdom have become my favorites because of you.
Christina G. says
So I think I’m going to use some of my Christmas cash on a few of these! The Gibson joggers are in my cart, and I think I’m going for the must have Zella leggings!! Thank you! And thank you so much for all your work on this blog- it is such a fun, positive, and refreshing breath of air, especially this year!
Julie says
Fun post! I have several from the list-the throw, edge lux sneakers, undies, Natori bra, cleansing balm (and several other CR products after trying balm). Love all of it! Very next on my list to get are the #1 joggers. Got a gift card for Christmas and I think I’ll get them with it. Vacuum still on my radar as well. Wit and Wisdom jeans too-haven’t tried yet believe it or not! I truly do love the things you recommend and appreciate all of your hard work on this blog. It’s a joy to follow it?
Beth says
I just ordered the stick vacuum!!! Have been wanting the MUCH more expensive one and was afraid to order a cheaper version. But I trust you! Am so excited to get it! 😀 (PS – the throws that I ordered my family for Christmas were a hit! Thank you!)
June says
I have so many from this list. Thanks for all the great recommendations. Keep em coming in 2021!
Melanie says
LOVE the Wit and Wisdom jeans. Thank you for introducing us to them! They are the only jeans I wear now, especially with this being the year of the “quarantine 15”. (Ugh) Here’s to all great things in 2021!
Maggie Jensen says
My mom buys me gifts from your posts! Thank goodness for Schaeffer! ??
Meghan Branyon says
Love the Wit and Wisdom jeans with the raw hem! And love your blog❤️ Happy New Year!
Renae says
I’ve been loving Wit & Wisdom jeans for years thanks to you! And I have never loved that vacuum more than I did tonight after taking down our Christmas tree!
Tiffany says
I have followed you for a pretty long time – reading your blog just makes me happy! You are the one that got me hooked on Vigoss jeans and now I can’t stop! I know I should branch out, but why mess with a good thing? They are hands down my favorite jeans! I’m at 10 pairs and counting!#can’tstopwon’tstop
Laura JeanS. says
I trust you… gonna have to get those leggings!!!
Robin says
Your blog is a favorite of mine. Being plus size means I can’t always find the exact items you share, but I do use your style as a guide because I feel like we share the same taste. I recently ordered the Amazon turtleneck sweater hoping that I might get lucky. While I loved the color and the feel of it, being well endowed kept it from looking right. It was just a smidge too short over my tummy. Keep the content coming!
Rebecca Brightwell says
Love the Zella leggings! I have several and keep going back to them instead of Lulu. Can’t wait to try the jeans and vacuum. It is on the list for the first appliance purchase for 2021! With two kids and three dogs not to mention the husband, a cordless vacuum is an essential home product! My friend raved about it too. Thanks for all of your great suggestions!
Fiona says
Those Nordstrom throws are amazing.. we have three now and my husband has banned me from buying more. I even offered to ditch two other throws for one more Nordstrom throw!
Laina Ramsey says
You are my favorite! I never have a problem getting dressed because of you! I work in a casual environment but always feel put together because I have learned so much from you. I love the Wit and Wisdom jeans and have become a Nordy girl and I’m not mad about it! So thankful for you and that you told me to!!!
Lisa Gonzalez says
I have at least 5 of your top 10 list. I’m a devoted fan of the CR balm and have two pair of the must have leggings. Seriously considering a third pair with some of my Christmas money… Love the blog! Happy New Year!
Sarah Hardin says
I bought the Nordstrom throw at your suggestion and absolutely love it. I am not sure how or why it is so much better than every other throw blanket in the house, but it is. Thanks for sharing!
Jamie Lobdell says
I have 5 of these items and a few others are on my wishlist. Love reading your blog. Happy new year to you and your family!
Jen F. says
Thanks for sharing! I have never really followed fashion bloggers but I like that your clothes are comfy and often from Amazon! Happy New Years!
Tammy Kelley says
I bought the stick vacuum, and I must agree-best purchase EVER! I appreciate all your recommendations; I’ve bought several of the sweaters you’ve featured (including the one from Amazon you have in four colors-I have it in two!).
Happy New Year!
Deb says
Last year you would have never caught me wearing joggers out of the house but this year….I live in them. Same with sneakers. Amazing what a pandemic can do to your style sense. Love the Wit and Wisdom jeans so comfy, when I’m not wearing joggers. LOL. Happy 2021 Sheaffer?
Kara Gray says
Thanks for doing this post-always an interesting read! Wit and Wisdom had been my saving grace through this COVID weight gain.
Kim Probst says
I love love love my stuck vacuum! It’s serious the best invention ever!
Stacey says
I love the Wit and Wisdom jeans!! Happy New Year.
Alyson Fowler says
I fell in love with cleansing balm and Wit and wisdom jeans. Thanks Sheaffer.
Brenda says
I have purchased, at your recommendation, the blanket SO MANY TIMES now as a gift and each and every time it is a huge hit! I even had some as “spare gifts”, a friend was here, loved the blanket, and was able to gift her one, making my heart so happy! It’s the best!
This year I think I’ll start 2021 off trying the leggings! Happy New Year to you!
Sarah says
I love all the wit and wisdom jeans!
Traci B. says
Thanks so much for your practical and reliable advice and a ton of laughs too! I have 4 pair of the boyfriend shorts (3 blue and 1 white when it was available for a hot minute), 3 blankets and 5 pair of Wit&Wisdom jeans, plus many, many of your other picks over the last few years. Your Nordstrom picks are my favorite as the items are of such great quality plus free shipping. Keep those coming! Much love to you in 2021!
April Woodbury says
I love the Wit & Wisdom jeans. I’m intrigued by being excited to vacuum.
Jenny says
So much goodness, thank you for the fun giveaway!

I absolutely love your reviews and always appreciate you putting in sizing information! I finally got the boyfriend shorts and love them! I found out I was pregnant so couldn’t wear them too much this summer but I cannot wait to buy some wit and wisdom jeans postpartum since I love the shorts your recommended so much! And the face mask is my absolute favorite with having glasses they’re the only ones that don’t fog them up.

Been out of town with no wifi so just catching up on my blogs! I love the year in review. I think I own at least half of these…all because you told me to! ;). The Zella joggers just went with me on a 13 hour car ride and I could not have been more comfortable! They don’t get too hot like some leggings do and still looked great at the end of the drive…no baggy knees here! I agree they are more charcoal gray than black but I love them! I’m not very adventures with color on the bottom but they are so great I’m considering another color! Thanks for the tip!

You turned me on to the Nordie blankets and the Soma vanishing edge panties and I’m not sure how I lived without those things before! I just ordered the Colleen Rothschild cleansing balm and would love to try the zella leggings next. Thanks for all the great roundups!!
